Anyone like the new fries at Wendy's better than the old ones? I think ole' Dave Thomas would be rolling in his grave. The new fries are not as good as the original. What say you?

On a related note, their burgers are not as good as they used to be. Did they shrink them?

Has anyone ever ate a Wendy's burger with just mayo and mustard on it? That is the best way to eat them.

Mayo, mustard, tomato, pickle and sometimes onion.

I quit going to wendys for 2 reasons

1) they always get my order wrong... I said no god damn mayo, it's nasty!

2) they stopped yelling your order into the mic. Used to love that part!!

I like the old ones better because I liked salt with my french fries, not french fries with my salt.

The old ones sucked. The new ones are some of the better fast food fries. Plus sea salt>normal salt.

The old fries sucked so bad they offered you to drop them from a value meal for other items. New ones are much better.

I like both. But they still aren't as good as McDonald's fries. :)

Their old fries were already my favorite fast food fries, and I like the new ones better.

I think that their burger patties have gotten smaller, especially on their double stacks and Jr. Bacon's. I assume that it was either shrink the patties or charge more.

If they are always screwing up your order then you shouldn't stop going to Wendy's all together, you should just stop going to that particular Wendy's. There are two different Wendy's about equal distance from me and I always go to the same one because the other one always screws up my order.

The amount of salt was pretty bad when they first released the fries. Their individual salt packets are now sea salt instead of regular table salt so they've stopped putting so much salt on the fries because you can now apply your own (at least my Wendy's hardly puts any salt on the fires now).

No matter what kind of salt they use, skins or no skins, their fries are still rather bland in taste. They are at the bottom of my list, as far as flavor.

1. Arby's curly fries
2. McDonalds fries
3. Everybody else
4. Wendy's fries
